I want to bring joy to people through my cooking – that is my philosophy.
Since I’ve had the opportunity to train at Michelin 2-star restaurants in Osaka and Kobe, I have learned how to delight customers through my cooking. Even when cooking elaborate dishes, I strive to make all of my ingredients ‘jikase’ (in-house) to ensure authenticity in each dishes’ taste.
While English may not be my strength, I believe my forte lies in my ‘smile.’ After all, cooking is about creating happiness with a smile! I look forward to welcoming all of you to dine at my restaurant.
If you want to try something a little unique during your trip to Japan, consider having a kaiseki dinner that consists of suppon. The owner-chef of this restaurant trained for more than a decade at a restaurant specializing in suppon (soft-shelled turtle) nabe (suppon hot pot), and opened his own restaurant in Fushimi, the southern area of Kyoto city, in 2019. Enjoy a traditional Kyoto-style course cuisine, alongside the suppon delicacy in , traditional Japanese architecture that has been renovated in the Taisho-Romantic design. We recommend savoring the chef’s beloved suppon dishes and carefully prepared seasonal flavors with a glass of Japanese sake.

Enjoy a kaiseki course dinner that not only features handmade soba noodles & tender Tochigi wagyu steak, but fresh sashimi, an assortment of tempura, dessert, and more.
I am originally from Tochigi Prefecture, and decided to become a chef partly in due to my love of kitchen knives created by Japanese craftsmen! I decided to open this Kyoto restaurant in 2017 with the idea of serving authentic Japanese cuisine that can be enjoyed by everyone. Our dishes not only feature ingredients from Kyoto, but also seasonal ingredients sent to us from farmers I personally know from my hometown in Tochigi.
We hope you enjoy our soba noodles, which is all handmade in the restaurant, top-grade Tochigi wagyu beef, and more.
